Tillis is up in 2020 (a POTUS year) in a purple state. He seems to be going out of his way to publicly attack POTUS. If he is not careful he will go the way of Ayotte.

Tillis is a bought and paid for GOPe/UniParty hack. Scum of the worst kind.

His “bill” is entirely unconstitutional.

And he is getting TERRIBLE advice from his no doubt highly paid beltway consultants. He could keep his head down and try to govern. Instead he’s chosen to undermine a POTUS of his own party and publicly antagonize Trump supporters. Good luck in 2020 winning without us, Senator.

The GOPe objective here is to pass these bills with a veto proof majority and undermine POTUS. Then the GOPe plans to seize the agenda from Trump on big ticket items like taxes, immigration & the budget.

Better to vote for a Rat than Tillis. He needs to full investigative resources of patriots to find out his darkest secrets and why he is such a turncoat.

If we can remove Flake in 2018 featherbedding cowards like Tillis will fall in line. Time for TEA 2.0 in 2018, IMO.

He is a perfect republican. I no longer blame democrats in ANY way for this assault on Trump. The dems hold zero power.

The Senate is trying to remove him, with an obvious goal of elevating Pence. They aren’t going after Pence at all, but everything is aimed at Trump.
A bill to protect Mueller. A Russia sanctions bill that clearly implied Trump should not be trusted to deal with sanctions. The GOP stayed in Session to prevent recess appointments. No repeal. No investigation of Hillary.

The GOP is trying to remove Trump, install Pence.

This may wind up with us all making a trip to DC. And not a friendly one.

>>We don’t want to restrict the administration’s authority or the Department of Justice from removing a counsel. We just want to make sure to the American people they can be convinced it was done for the right reasons.<<

The way they lie is just so infuriating that it almost justifies a violent response. Actually, it almost demands one!

It is a response to Trump..

They have ZERO leverage over him, and this would be a way to get some. A classic power struggle is going on.

Their real oath is to Moloch.

We see it as worship of Megabucks, globalism, socialism and against conservatism, traditionalism and Christianity.

“This is about the Department of Justice,” the first-term senator said. “This is about my confidence in the attorney general and my confidence in a Department of Justice to move forward in an appropriate manor. … We don't want to restrict the administration’s authority or the Department of Justice from removing a counsel. We just want to make sure to the American people they can be convinced it was done for the right reasons.”

They realize Muller is breaking the law by 'looking for a crime' this myth as been blown out of the water as a lie...Muller is now on an illegal witch hunt....McConnell and Ryan should be allover this sham. Why didn't they go after Obama and his constantly going around congress and abuse of our Constitution...the list is long and ugly. Tillis is obviously carrying water for some leftie he owes a favor too.
